Isiah Thomas: Kevin Durant Would Have Been a Problem For Bad Boy Pistons
Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas says his Bad Boy Pistons of the 1980’s would be even better in today’s NBA, but would have no answer for Kevin Durant.

“The one guy that would give us tremendous problems right now would probably be Kevin Durant.
“We wouldn’t really have a matchup for KD. Although [John] Salley and [Dennis] Rodman were very athletic, his ball handling skills out of the perimeter would give him a really huge advantage against Rodman and Salley.”
